7 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this extension study is to assess the safety and tolerability of secukinumab when administered long-term in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab 300 milligram (mg) and 150 mg administered subcutaneously (s.c.) for 52 weeks in combination with prednisone tapered over 24 weeks in adult participants with PMR who have recently relapsed.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica
Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is an inflammatory disease causing shoulder, hip, and neck pain and stiffness, in adults aged 50 years or older. This study evaluates how safe and effective ABBV-154 is in participants with glucocorticoid-dependent PMR. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. ABBV-154 is an investigational drug being evaluated for the treatment of PMR. Participants will be randomized into 1 of 4 treatment groups or arms, each arm receiving a different treatment. There is a 1 in 4 chance that a participant will be assigned to placebo. Around 160 participants, of at least 50 years of age, with PMR will be enrolled in the study at approximately 95 sites worldwide. The study is compromised of a 52 week double-blind, placebo-controlled period and a follow-up visit 70 days after the last dose of the study drug. All participants will receive a glucocorticoid taper along with the assigned dose of ABBV-154 or placebo, subcutaneously (SC) every other week (eow). There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica
This is a fifteen-month open label, Phase IIa clinical trial is being conducted to assess the tolerability, safety and efficacy of a medication called Tocilizumab (Actemra®) in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).
Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR)
This study will examine how intravenous (i.v.) Secukinumab will be processed in the body (pharmacokinetics \[PK\]) and whether it will be safe and tolerable after multiple doses of i.v. Secukinumab infusion in adult patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).
Giant Cell Arteritis, Polymyalgia Rheumatica
A four-week, randomized, controlled, open-label trial of DR prednisone in which patients receive in period 1 one of three-night time doses of treatment (4mg, 7mg or 10mg) for two weeks followed in period 2 by treatment with 15mg IR prednisone in the morning for two weeks. Period 1 is randomized and open-label and period 2 is open label. Before enrollment and randomization patient diagnosis and responsiveness to 15mg IR prednisone in the morning is established. 45 patients will be randomized, 15 patients in each treatment arm.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica
The aim of this study is to evaluate a simple and rapid method in order to better define and treat Polymyalgia Rheumatica by measuring levels of muscle achiness and pain with a blood pressure cuff.
